Logan Paul has taken another positive step towards his WWE return, although he has confirmed he is not yet fully cleared to compete.

Paul has been out of action for several months after undergoing surgery on a torn triceps. In his latest vlog, released on August 26, the WWE star provided an update on his recovery and revealed he has now been given permission to begin throwing clotheslines again.

While speaking with Liv Morgan, Paul initially suggested he had been completely cleared.

“They cleared me. I was just telling Bruce.”

However, Paul quickly clarified that he has not yet received full medical clearance to return to the ring. Instead, doctors have allowed him to begin performing certain wrestling movements.

“Well, they said I could throw, bro. No, no, they said I could throw clotheslines. I’m semi cleared.”

Paul also revealed that he has returned to the gym after largely avoiding training during the early stages of his recovery.

He explained that he made the decision not to heavily train his healthy arm because he did not want to create a major strength difference between the two sides of his body while his injured arm recovered.

“But also, I was afraid to just work out one arm and get this one arm even stronger and then this one be like a little noodle. And so, my muscles have atrophied.”

“I didn’t want to have like a Hulk arm and a weak arm, so I figured I’d just let him like get weak at the same time so when I come back I can just try to do it all at once. But point is we’re hitting the gym.”

Paul suffered the torn triceps during a WWE World Tag Team Championship match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Initial expectations suggested he could be sidelined for around six months.

However, Paul revealed in July that doctors believed his recovery was approximately three months ahead of schedule.

There is still no confirmed date for Paul's return to WWE competition, and being "semi cleared" does not mean he is ready to wrestle a full match. However, returning to the gym and being permitted to perform clotheslines represents another significant step in his recovery.
